Subject: [PATCH 0/2] nfnetlink_queue updates
Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2012 15:03:08 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1348491790-10276-1-git-send-email-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

Hi,

The following patches aim to provide a workaround for the
problem described by Florian Westphal in:

http://marc.info/?l=netfilter-devel&m=134519473212536&w=2

The idea (by now) is to limit the maximum support length to what
we can handle, which is 65535 - 4 bytes and add a new attribute
that allows us to know the real packet length in the kernel.

Pablo Neira Ayuso (2):
  netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: fix maximum packet length to userspace
  netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: add NFQA_CAP_LEN attribute
